Subject: [PATCH] drivers: staging: comedi: Add ftrace support

This patch originates from the need to measure latency
introduced by driver for Amplicon's PCIE215 during interrupt
handling.

Added is a single ftrace event:

/*
* Tracepoint for calling from various places inside Comedi.
* Takes simple id and prints it to the trace log if trace
* events from Comedi are enabled.
*
* Currently following tracepoints are in use:
*
* Id : Description
* 0   Enter the interrupt of amplc_dio200_common
* 1   Called from same ISR of amplc_dio200_common if IRQ is handled
*
* If you would like to add new tracepoint just add a call to
*     trace_comedi_event(id)
* with id incremented.
*/
TRACE_EVENT(comedi_event,
	TP_PROTO(__u8 id),
	TP_ARGS(id),
	TP_STRUCT__entry(
			 __field(__u8, id)
			),
	TP_fast_assign(
		       __entry->id = id;
		       ),
	TP_printk("[%u]", __entry->id)
);

Event can be raised from multiple places in code
and when read from trace log and disambiguated by id
allows for latency (timing) measurement between
corresponding points in code.

Event with id 0 has been put inside amplc_dio200_common
interrupt handler to mark ISR entry. Event with id 1
has been put right after previous one to mark cases when
IRQ is handled.

Example

By enabling triggering of Comedi ftrace events together
with sched_wakeup event

	cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
	echo 1 > events/comedi/enable
	echo 1 > events/sched/sched_wakeup/enable
	echo nop > trace
		start the program using Comedi to execute blocking read
		to sense the signal asserted on pin PPI_Y_C0 of PCIE215
	echo 1 > tracing_on
	echo 0 > tracing_on
	vim trace

and by analysing the content of produced trace file

it has been found that on the sample of 625 interrupts the worse
case latency for Comedi driver to wake up the sleeper on a blocking
call to read() was 80 microseconds (19.31 us on average).
